“Hello! I am Stephen Taft, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. We all reach points in our life when we need some additional support to break out of problem patterns or to manage difficult issues. If you have been experiencing trouble in your relationships, anxiety, depression or have been feeling overwhelmed; it may be a good time to start therapy. Together we can work to build upon your personal strengths to support your growth in order to create a happier and healthier life.”

“I’m a marriage and family therapist who works through a systemic and attachment-based lens, exploring how past and present relationships shape how we experience ourselves and others. Early emotional environments teach us ways to cope and connect, but those strategies aren’t always sustainable. Therapy offers a space to explore and reshape those patterns. I specialize in working with couples and new parents navigating disconnection, communication challenges, and identity shifts. I also support individuals, adolescents, children, and families in learning to move through emotions rather than around them, building confidence, resilience, and secure connections.”

“You love your child deeply, but parenting feels harder than you ever expected. Maybe you are exhausted by constant power struggles, worried about your child's anxiety, big emotions, or behavior, or wondering why the strategies that seem to work for other families just are not working in yours. You may be carrying the weight of adoption, foster care, trauma, having a neurodivergent child no one else understands, or your coming to terms with your own childhood experiences while trying to be the parent you want to be. I work with parents who want things to feel different. You may know what is happening does not feel right, but not know how to shift it. Together, we will make sense of what brought you to therapy, maybe your child's unique nervous system, maybe your own experience of trauma as a child, while also strengthening your relationships, and building practical strategies that help your whole family feel more connected, confident, and supported.”

“I work primarily with couples and other relational units (triads, families, etc) as well as individuals often dealing with relationship issues. I have experience supporting couples navigating infidelity, high conflict, infertility/family planning and parenting, substance abuse, and mental health issues.”

“You notice your old wounds are getting harder to ignore. You're carrying persistent anxiety, feeling unsafe more often, or simply exhausted from navigating everything on your own. You are ready for it to let up a little bit so that you can catch a break. Here we can create a supportive, trauma-informed telehealth space with daytime, evening, and weekend availability to explore your inner landscape at a pace that feels safe, grounding, and respectful. Lets move together toward healing, growth, and connection to your Self and others. I specialize in working on women's issues, issues impacting LGBTQIA+ individuals, and those exploring different paths to parenthood and/or experiencing infertility.”

“The clients who work well with me are those who may be self aware, or knowledgeable about therapy techniques, but do not have the tools to make the improvements they already know they need to make. I also help my clients see things from different perspectives in order to fully understand the situations they've experienced and why they react the way they do. Clients who come to me often struggle with family dynamics, perhaps they are the scape goat, or the helper/fixer of their family. Often my clients have experienced abuse of some sort, be it childhood, adulthood, religious, or sexual. The clients I most enjoy helping are those who struggle to feel seen, to understand why they are constantly treated poorly, and why no one seems to understand what they are feeling. These clients also often struggle with behaviors they can't seem to stop or prevent.”

“Whether you're navigating life transitions, anxiety, relationship challenges, burnout, or a sense of feeling “not enough,” the journey together will be a collaborative process. My goal is to help you cultivate inner safety, strengthen self-trust, and create a life aligned with your values—not perfection.”

“Life can be tough, and our minds often create barriers that make it hard to move forward. Whether you're seeking clarity on what drives you, or navigating the everyday challenges that life brings, my goal is to support you in a way that feels safe and validating. I offer a warm, welcoming, and non-judgmental space where clients can feel truly heard and understood. Through therapy, my aim is to help you work through the complexities of being human - helping you better understand yourself and find ways to cope with the unique challenges of living in today’s world. I specialize in ADHD, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, depression, and self-esteem, including couples therapy. I use Internal Family Systems (IFS), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, EMDR, and other eclectic, related modalities. I also work with Schema therapy.”

“I work with adolescents (16+) and adults navigating chronic pain, medical and institutional betrayal trauma, religious trauma, dissociation, identity concerns, and spirituality. Many of the clients I work with understand on a logical level that they are safe enough, yet their nervous system continues to respond as though danger is present. In many ways, I work with danger that has overstayed its welcome.”

“So many of the adults I work with are high-functioning on the outside while quietly struggling on the inside. Anxiety has become a constant companion. Something from the past still shows up in unexpected ways, affecting relationships, sense of safety, or how they see themselves. And no matter what they accomplish, it never feels like enough. If you're hard on yourself, caught in cycles of perfectionism, or carrying more than you let on, you're not alone. I work with adults navigating anxiety, healing from trauma, and untangling the belief that their worth depends on what they produce or how perfectly they perform. My approach is warm and collaborative, and I'll meet you exactly where you are.”

“I am accepting new clients. I specialize in helping Gen Z and Millennials (individuals and couples, ages 15-45) who struggle with anxiety, life transitions, communication, attachment wounds, and trauma. Together, we will make space for your whole story - the good, the difficult, especially the parts that may have been misunderstood or dismissed. We’ll look at the patterns keeping you stuck, challenge the thoughts that make things harder, and build coping tools that work for your life. I offer non-judgmental sessions, with a little bit of humor - I believe humor can healing!”

“You're the woman who has it together on the outside. The business, the family, the full life. But internally you're exhausted, scattered, and wondering why the things that work for everyone else don't seem to work for you. You're wired differently, carrying more than most, and possibly navigating hormonal shifts that nobody talks about honestly. You've done the work before. You're ready for something that actually sticks — deeper, faster results with a therapist who genuinely gets the specific weight you carry. And if you happen to be a therapist yourself, you already know how rare it is to find someone who truly gets the weight you carry on both sides. In our work together, you get to take off the clinician hat completely. This is your space to just be a person, not a professional, not the one with the answers, not the one holding everyone else together. Just you.”
